Authboss与数据库

Question

I just started learning Go a couple weeks ago, and I want to try and implement a kind of authentication system for a web server. Now, I found authboss which seems like a perfect solution except I don't understand how to integrate it with a traditional database. It seems like it just stores everything in its own memory which is a nightmare if the server crashes or needs to be restarted. That having been said, does anyone have any ideas, thoughts, or recommendations?

1. To use authboss authentication with a database backend you need to write a 'storer' implementation. There aren't very many database storers readily available (at least I haven't been able to find them).

2. Example authentication implementations with a database backend:

   • http://www.josephspurrier.com/go-web-app-example/ (Uses MySQL or Postgres)
   • https://blue-jay.github.io/ An updated version of the above implementation. Looks very promising.
   • https://github.com/qor/auth (Uses GORM)

Based on the number of stars on github, authboss is the most popular.

Of course, there are also commercial options, e.g. https://auth0.com/blog/authentication-in-golang/
